Navigation Customer Insights

1. But the two times I tried it when I was out on the road, the Navigate in App was not even showing in Maps Go even though the Google Play Store was showing that it was installed on my smartphone! So Maps Go, to me, is worthless if I can't hear the audio giving me directions because I don't like having to continually look down at my smartphone when I am driving.The app sometimes freezes as your driving.

2. Google, maybe instead of nap time at the campus, they could actually work on a map app that could actually navigate to a destination.People don’t seem to understand the purpose of this app, Navigation for Google Maps Go is NOT a replacement for Google Maps or Waze.

3. A recent update to... something, not sure if Google, Google maps, navigation for maps, Android or one of the dozens of other updates has broken this.

4. I've already had a problem with offline maps in the original Google maps not showing the blue direction marker even after downloading the directions.

5. Needed for Google Maps Go, if you want navigation.

6. If your phone is relatively new and runs well, use the standard Google Maps or Waze.

7. I have to go through the secure log in at least 3 times every time I try to use maps and then it will never load the map or list the directions.

8. If your phone is older or you’re using an Android Go device, this app will get you going where you need to go with a simple interface and quick navigation.I hate this app, it never works.

9. And, what happened to speed trap notifications? Did you switch providers? There are several other differences that do not appear to be improvements.When I downloaded this and tried it the first time in my house, it worked fine.

10. Maps Go no longer sees this and seemingly now needs full fat Google Maps.

11. Also, when I want to temporarily suspended navigation by going back to the previous screen (to save battery use), it continues to give me instructions unlike previous versions.
